MCDONALD DUCK PROJECT 1989 REVISITED
EWEN MCDONALD. 5 AUGUST – 30 AUGUST 2026
The MCDONALD DUCK PROJECT is about labour-intensive production. The two components are both the result of intensive hands-on work - a line of mismatched plastic eggs made for broody hens purchased from a sheltered workshop; and stuffed ducklings found on a road trip through France at a petrol station where one would least expect to see a display of fluffy Chinese souvenirs. Equally, the installation itself takes time … but in a gallery space, more a quiet contemplative experience than the exacting and systematic fabrication processes one associates with mass production.
